Perikuresu Don't double post.

The Retired from TNP of Madjack

Weird thing I've noticed about the COVID vaccine - this is the first time I can ever remember when people care about who the manufacturer is. Think about it - you don't ask your doctor what company made your flu jab. If you're going on holiday to another country and you need to get shots, you never think about whenever Pfizer or Johnson & Johnson or AstraZeneca made it. It's the first case I can think of where brand loyalty is factoring into what vaccine people want to get.

I know what you are saying. :D

When I got the jab, the nurse told me it was the AstraZeneca one.

Like I was really bothered to be honest.

It tells me on the card anyway..........

Just give me the jab so I can get out of here. Lol

I think it's also because the brands are also publishing their efficacy rating. The case of brand loyalty here (in PH) is pretty extreme because of geopolitical issues, and the fact scientific backing in that one vaccine is virtually non-existent or falsified. I don't know, though.

TNPV XV

Unity Through Music

Hosts: Terry Wogan, Marcus Antonius and Cleopatra VII

Venue: The Antonian Festival Park, The Moral High Ground, Ethnon


Welcome to the fifteenth edition of TNPV!

The last edition was in Yöta Park, Yöta Stadium, Castönë/Cokoland, where our nation won with 126 points! Cleopatra was very happy and the crocodiles went hungry, poor things.

This edition will be hosted in The Antonian Festival Park, The Moral High Ground, Ethnon.

While you are visiting our capital, why not visit our mausoleum, it's not finished yet, we are not in a great hurry to use it.
Visit our great Temple of Ethena and make friends with the temple cats or go to The Ethnonian Museum and marvel at The Sword of King Ethros!
Then there are the Royal Bee Hives. Don't try and take any honey though. The Bees are quite possessive and they do sting! Ethnonian Royal Honey can be purchased from all good vendors around the city. You can always feed Cleopatra's crocodiles, they are always hungry so don't get too close.
We hope you have a very pleasant stay with us. Good luck to all the contestants.

The Rin-Chans of Illusia and Neverendia

Added some Santhean slang. I think that's enough factbook editing for tonight.



The Languages of Illusia and Neverendia
Die Sprachen von Illusionenland und Neverendienland (Illusian)
Ye Leeds o Illoise en Nyverythland (High Neverendian)
The Leids o Ilooise an Nyverendia (Gathorean)
Dee Lithdens of Naktberge und Nichtberends (Santhean)


Santhean
Dee Santhens Lithden

Santhean
Santhens

Native to:Illusia and Neverendia
Language family:
Southeast Anean
• Leithanic
• West Leithanic
• East Neverendian
Santhean

Speakers:L1: 8.4 million, L2: 1.25 million

Official status

• Recognised as regional language in Illusia and Neverendia per the 1904 Royal Decree on Usages of Illuverendian Regional Languages, additionally declared a protected language with governmental support on proliferation and expansion

Official language in the County of Santhea

In Illusia and Neverendia, there are two official and national languages, those being Illusian and Neverendian. Along with that, the country also has four regional languages, namely Kazdelian (alongside its Nova Thalianessean dialect), Gathorean, High Neverendian, and last but not the least, Santhean. This factbook focuses on the Santhean language, a regional language spoken in the Illuverendian county of Santhea.

The Santhean language (Santhens lithden) is a Southeast Anean language exclusively unique and widely spoken in the county of Santhea in eastern Neverendia. The sole surviving language within the East Neverendian language family, Santhean was considered to be a creole language between Illusian, Neverendian, and other regional languages of the country. Further linguistic research to its origins showed that Santhean had cognate roots with Gathorean and bits of High Neverendian, certifying its East Neverendian heritage and thus classifying it to be a West Leithanic language. Illusian influence however, owing to the region's turbulent history, developed the language even further. The uniqueness of Santhean as the solely remaining East Neverendian language has garnered local fame and thus many organisations were established to save the language. The Franziskanic era's Royal Decree on Usages of Illuverendian Regional Languages, signed and entered into force in 1904, solidified the status of Santhean and other Illuverendian regional languages, thus promoting their use and saving them from extinction.

During the Ekelepoche, the Santhean language was used extensively as a mean of protest against Priscilla d'Autriche, as she had a fondness for it.

Santhean follows the same grammatical structure of Neverendian, and uses one definite particle: dee (/ˈdɪ/), in contrast to the Illusian articles der, die, das (which are masculine/feminine/neuter definite articles respectively). The Santhean particle is more similar to the Neverendian the and High Neverendian ye. Santhean also uses the indefinite particle en, similar to the Neverendian a. A number of Santhean words come from Middle Neverendian origins which have been deprecated due to the integration of Kazdelian to Neverendian at some point.

Santhean also pronounces the letter J as a Y in most cases, but there are exceptions.

Santhean slang (Santhens stratlithden)

Like most languages, the Santhean language has a bountiful amount of slang. Santhean slang, locally known as Stratlithden (lit. street language) are in italic. Its Neverendian equivalents are in bold.

Stratlithden term

Neverendian equivalent (proper term or slang)

Meaning / other notes

twakken or knaktkerd

knackered

Exhausted; tired.

jammyhead

hard-headed, stubborn

Usually refers to a stubborn person. This slang has entered Neverendian lexicon, carrying the same notation.

Kleberling

nerd

From a nativised spelling of Neverendian clever, and the Illusian suffix -ling. Usually used as a compliment.

doof

silly, insane

Taken from Illusian doof, which means "stupid" or "dumb".

Vogelhead

birdbrain

Calque and slight alteration of Neverendian birdbrain

(en) Milchschake

mind-boggling or confusing

Usually is used when something is perplexing to comprehend.

Vulkan

cheesed off, pissed off; see angry

Denotes a considerably high level of anger

parroting, parroting around

chatter

Folktalk

gossip

boole o' grains

cup of tea

Literally means "bowl of grains". Santhean native variant, as the county is predominantly agricultural

nibblelings

snacks, grub

From Neverendian nibble and Illusian suffix -ling

weedy

boring

Originated from Santhean farmers that were kicked out during the Illusia-Neverendia War. The war
had displaced them from their farms, which severely damaged Santhea's agricultural industry. Upon their return, their fields were overrun with weeds, and animal ranches were riddled with carcasses of slain livestock. Its usage, as a terminology for boring, was registered as far back as the 19th century.

Stratlithden saw a major uptick in use at the onset of the 20th century, especially when Santhean was promulgated to be a protected language, with provisions for proliferation. As a result, Stratlithden found itself to be integrated into the Neverendian language slang.


Military terms

Listed below is a table of Santhean military terms. The Royal Illuverendian Armed Forces normally uses both Illusian and Neverendian as prime mediums of instruction, but Santhean soldiers within their ranks often cite their local equivalents.
